[Ipsec-tools-devel] [SECURITY] IPsec-tools 0.2.5 and 0.3rc5

[Michal L. <mi...@lo...>]

Hi all,

new releases from both 0.2 and 0.3 branches are out. I strongly recommend
you to upgrade to either of those, especially if you use X.509
certificates for authentication, because the older versions contain a
nasty security bug. Big thanks goes to Ralf Spenneberg for reporting it.

In addition you'll get the following improvements in 0.3rc5 release:

0.3rc5  - 05 April 2004
        o Security bugfix WRT handling X.509 signatures.
        o Stability fix WRT unknown PF_KEY messages.
        o Fixed NAT-T with more proposals (e.g. more crypto algos).
        o Setkey parses lines one by one => doesn't exit on errors.
        o Setkey supports readline => more user friendly.

As usual, report any problems to: ips...@li...
